Bill overview
This bill asks the United States Postal Service to create a specific ZIP code for Fairlawn, Virginia. Currently, Fairlawn shares a ZIP code with the neighboring city of Radford, leading to issues with the allocation of sales tax revenue. Congress believes this separation is necessary to ensure Fairlawn receives its fair share of tax revenue collected from online sales. The Postal Service is required to establish this new ZIP code within 180 days of the bill’s enactment.
